This was set up on a transit connect 2014. It is a bit confusing to set up but only because this it is a product designed for a variaty of vehicles - the set uo is not set in stone.We set it up at home for that same reason - to practice before going camping. Now that we did it once it should be a breeze to do it again.I used an old bungee cord that had hooks on the ends. Cut the bungee in half and used it to attach to my rims. This way i didnt need to thread that plastic buckle through the rims which seemed difficult.You can set it up with two poles or one in the center. For the price this seemed to provide more cover and versatility than one of those pull out roofs/awnings that you can have attached to the side of your car. Even tho those give your car a cool overlander look, I still have to use my van for work. (The biggest game changer was adapting my roof rack to fit this cargo box i had. Now all I carry is on top and I have plenty of modest room to sleep).The tent/shade/roof folds nicely into a carry bag wich has plenty of space even if you dont fold it perfectly.The only thing i didnt like (but will modify) would be painting the steaks on some bright color as the green that came with keept getting lost in the grass. Will paint the top ends fluorescent.If you are looking for this type of set up, you have found it in this brand. I hope this review helps. Good luck.

Glad I bought this, had rain on our camping trip and this gave us plenty of room. Center sagged pretty bad with the rain though so had to work through a couple of configurations to get it to drain properly.

A bit tricky on initial setup but totally reliable. Got poured on for 12 hours and stayed bone dry underneath. No leaks or seepage whatsoever. Highly reccomend it.

Really big canopy, light weight, durable, for the money it’s really good. Plenty of tie downs I managed a weekend in high wind condition without it pulling loose or damaging product. Nice shade and keeps dew off your gear

The media could not be loaded. Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love this product ! Kept my tent bone dry in the rain - I’m glad I’d ordered other poles like the reviews suggested (I got the Green elephant camping tarp poles ). The ones that come with are alright - but not as easy to change the height once you’ve set up the tarp. It took me a minute to figure it out, but I was able to set it up by myself! Would recommend

Giving it 4 stars because I have not camped under it yet. Love the design of this awning. Tried a regular nylon tarp—too much fabric, too much hassle.Built out my pickup truck so I could camp in it and bought this to give me some dry-ish air and shade. Hooked it up to the tow hooks on the front of my 2006 Tundra with soft flat straps to save the paint.The nylon click-buckle Geertop system is the bomb. I couldn’t use it on tires or doors, but it sure made creating a harness I could use and deploy and take down quickly really easy.I got 2 poles in the box, but it needs three to make sure the rain flows off properly. Otherwise, it seems well thought out with good reinforcement in critical places and provision for plenty of stakes. Love the night bright, adjustable, color coded guy lines. The stakes are pretty worthless. Get some good ones (8 or 10 inch nails are good). Very manageable size folded and rolled. Fits my small space nicely.Gives me at least 10 ft of awning beyond the topper rear door when it’s raised up. Hard to describe. See pics. I’ll update when I use it in September for a ten day camping run through a lot of different country.

The media could not be loaded. I've never been camping before. The dates for our trip were set and as it got closer rain was in the forecast, so I ordered this thing. If you've never done this before you'll definitely want to watch some videos on YouTube for some tips, because the instructions stink and the video from the company is more of a promo video than a how to set this thing up on your own video. Standing the two poles up is done after setting up two guy lines to each poleThis was a great buy. It provided shade when needed, and as you can see in my video when the rain came through it did it's job. The wind picked up a bit too and it held up great. One or two guy lines came off their stake but that's probably due to me setting it up weak/poorlyAgain this thing is great. Universal. Can use on any SUV, maybe even minivans, and there's a way to set it up with out a car. It looks cool and it's bigger than expected. Definitely longer than my car.I would love a way to set this up in a parking lot for a tailgate to a sporting event or concert. Not sure if there's a way to do it without hitting the stakes into the ground? If you figure out a way, let me know!

Massive coverage — the size is no joke: ~196×228/103 inches. Big enough to shade the tailgate area and still have room to chill under without crowding.Solid materials — the 210T polyester feels sturdy, it’s both water-resistant and tear-resistant. Doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy at all.Flexible setup — love that there are multiple mounting options (single pole, dual pole, A-frame, etc.). Adaptable to weather, space, and how many people are around.AmazonQuick install & adjust — the telescoping poles are a nice touch (72-83″), and the buckle attachments make it less of a wrestling match getting it on.Minor thoughts:When it’s windy, you’ll want to anchor it well. Big surface = more wind load.For heavy downpours, might need to angle it correctly so water runs off instead of pooling.Final verdict:If you’re into camping, road trips, tailgates, or just want extra shade behind your SUV, this awning gives you big value. Durable, well sized, and built to handle real use. Absolutely recommend.
